Other 🇺🇸 USA - Apple.com - iPhone 15/Plus/Pro/Pro Max/ US Pre-Orders, Orders, and Delivery Status Thread

Possible update for you 10/9-16 folks.

That was the date range for my wife’s phone. I just noticed the taxes got charged to my Apple Card. I checked her order progress in the Apple Store app…”Preparing to ship”. The date in there still says 10/2, but I would imagine it should be here even sooner now.

YMMV. Good luck!

Pairing it with white titanium iPhone. What I realize is that the Apple Store pictures of the silicone cases are "brighter" looking. The actual color of these cases are definitely darker. The cypress I just got looks like forest green (darker than what it is online). It just get a shade lighter in the outside sunlight but not to the extent of the Apple Store pictures. I hope this helps.

I love that they're darker. YMMV.

I have almost never used a case since the 3gs. I get some wear and tear with scratches but have only broken my screens twice that I can remember

You’re not dropping it right.

 

[Bananasaurus]

I'm so late and lost on this one so I'm gonna sit this one out

 

[Tinaatwt]

Yippee!

My $4 clear case shows up today from Amazon. I forget who posted the coupon code and the link about 100 pages ago in this thread, but thank you!

Planning to run around naked (ha ha) w/magnetic PopSocket for the most part, and just pop on the clear case when I have to commute to the office a few days a week or for travel. Depending on how slippery the 15's are. My 12PM is super slippery so I toss a case on if I'm going out for the day.

$4? You are quite the pansy! I am impressed!

I know I don't feel like going back so many posts.

Anybody that is not tracking with UPS MyChoice but has all the alert boxes checked get any emails yet with tracking?

Does anyone know how horrific the in-store pickup experience is on release day?

The last time I did it was in Soho NYC 2019. I usually pick one of the earliest pickup time slots so they aren't backed up already. I think they've beens stricter on how "early" you can enter the store if your time slot is 8:30-9am. I definitely agree with the other people that the morning is definitely less crazy than the afternoon. They are pretty efficient though. If you aren't setting up your new iPhone there then it's quick. I spent hours at the store setting up my new iPhone because I needed to return my previous iPhone (IUP) and I wanted to make sure everything was okay. The energy at the store is usually pretty awesome though and you don't get that opening an iPhone at home. Are you picking up this year?

Several (no, not confessing how many this early in the morning) premium cocktails, clearly having an effect.

Cranking up AirPods, probably too loud.

Over Everything .... Don't want to talk about nothing

I love everything about these two. Such a great song.

 

[SisterBlue22]

how about using the remote on your iPhone?

You know.....I never think of that, until I search for something on AppleTV, and my phone buzzes and offers for me to type on the keyboard instead of using the remote. I should try it more often. However, I do love the AppleTV remote, feels nice in my hand.

 

[SisterBlue22]

That's what my pants are for!!! to wipe off the back... seriously my only complaint about the clear ones is they are so slippery on the back. I tend to leave it on the arm of a recliner and they always slip down. no problem if it falls on the seat part but I'm pissed if it falls the other way on to my wood floor! UGH

100% the same reason I don't use clear cases.

I guess it all depends on the location. Last year my friend designated me as a pick up person for the apple watch 8 and i went there at 4 pm on launch and there weren’t any lines at all and literally went in picked up order and out the door in 2 minutes.

 

[TheColtr]

Anyone else not able to select to pick up at a UPS customer center? UPS just isn't giving me the option like last year.

Last 3 years its been smooth sailing. I picked up at the soho store, the world trade center store, and once in NJ garden state plaza..... Each time I had a time slot... when I arrived there was someone checking people in and as long as you arrive within your alloted time slot they put you on a separate line which goes really quickly. they usher people in one by one to a table where they have all of the phones and check you out quickly.

 

[SisterBlue22]

The edges crumble after a few weeks to a few months sometimes. I still would get one if you like the looks and feel.

I keep hearing that, but I've been using Apple's silicone cases 100% of the time since they came out, and have never had that happen. Right now, I have one tiny chip in the silicone in the corner of my case, but it's otherwise perfect, and it's been on my phone for close to a year nonstop. I've seen other people with them and they are falling apart, and it makes me wonder what they do with their phones that I don't.

For reference, without using @TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️ OEM Apple adapter. 😇😉😎
The USB Type C port is a welcomed feature set.

These are actually awesome, as far as rugged clear (at least clear back) cases go. Unfortunately, holy fingerprints, Batman!

Okay, am I the only one who notices an actual difference in the bezels? I see so many people saying they're not different - when they're significantly thinner (excluding chassis)?? Sure, they're not as thing as 1.5-1.55mm as rumored, but they're definitely better.

Well this is interesting

Not a problem, my 15Pro is already in Fort Worth.

Sounds like, from the post on the last page (492) that Apple is not allowing that this year. Apparently you can call Apple and they'll lift the restriction.

 

[rjjacobson]

Well finnished the video reviews on MR today and found one more while watching them on YouTube this one. Another good one about the 15 pro line and what significant things are found for photography this in detail is why I jumped. He also explained some terms I did not understand in other reviews.

They're not all slippery like that.

 

[Wolfs]

I have a question about AppleCare + warranty. I just got the standard, but I think I want to get the theft and loss too. Do you guys know if this is possible after the purchase?

I don’t know for sure, but I’d bet Apple would be happy to take more of your money.

I love the magnetic pop sockets so much! Paired with glitter Tidepool grips!
